Sufjan Stevens...
is my god. His upcoming album, Illinois, is wonderful.
It's not a reach to say it's on par with Greetings From Michigan... That should pretty much sum it up. I love you, illegal downloads. Tracklisting: 01 Concerning the UFO Sighting Near Highland, IL 02 The Black Hawk War, or, How to Demolish an Entire Civilization and Still Feel Good About Yourself in the Morning, or, We Apologize for the Inconvenience But You're Going to Have to Leave Now, or, "I have fought the Big Knives and will continue to fight them until they are off our lands!" 03 Come on! Feel the Illinoise! 04 John Wayne Gacy, Jr. 05 Jacksonville 06 A Short Reprise for Mary Todd, Who Went Insane, But for Very Good Reasons 07 Decatur, or, Round of Applause for Your Step Mother! 08 One Last "Woo-hoo!" for the Pullman 09 Chicago 10 Casimir Pulaski Day 11 To the Workers of the Rockford River Valley Region, I have an Idea Concerning Your Predicament, and it involves shoe string, a lavender garland, and twelve strong women 12 The Man of Metropolis Steals Our Hearts 13 Prairie Fire That Wanders About 14 A Conjunction of Drones Simulating the Way in Which Sufjan Stevens Has an Existential Crisis in the Great Godfrey Maze 15 The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us! 16 They Are Night Zombies!! They Are Neighbors!! They Have Come Back From the Dead!! Ahhhhh! 17 Let's Hear That String Part Again, Because I Don't Think They Heard It All the Way Out in Bushnell 18 In This Temple, as in the Hearts of Man, for Whom He Saved the Earth 19 The Seer's Tower 20 The Tallest Man, the Broadest Shoulders 21 Riffs and Variations on a Single Note for Jelly Roll, Earl Hines, Louis Armstrong, Baby Dodds, and the King of Swing, to Name a Few 22 Out of Egypt, into the Great Laugh of Mankind, and I shake the dirt from my sandals as I run Release Date: July 5. |

Greetings from Michigan... is minimalistic piano-driven aural heaven.

I'm not sure if it's as good as Michigan (that's be some damn high praise), but it's very, very good. I'm on my third consecutive listen. EDIT: I would suggest looking for it on Soulseek or trying to find a torrent of the full album. |

Re: Sufjan Stevens...
thanks. i don't think soulseek is compatible w/ my mac, but i found 3 songs elsewhere (titled, by someone, "decatur", "casimir pulaski day", and "john wayne gacy, jr."). DAMN.
according to one of the webpages, wyoming is supposedly next. |

Re: Sufjan Stevens...
I downloaded it yesterday, used torrentspy.com and had to join some website, thecellar.com or something like that. I think I'm liking this album a little better than Greetings from Michigan which is pretty amazing cause I loved their first album. I listened to All The Trees of The Field Will Clap Their Hands for about four months straight. Decatur is my favorite of the album so far, but I've only gone a couple times through so far.

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, it's pretty impossible to pick a favorite. After three listens I'd say I'm wavering between "John Wayne Gacy, Jr." and "The Predatory Wasp...". I think I like Wasp better right now. Damn good album. |
